The Royal Coconut Frock on Friday

*Hello Hello*

I have been waiting to show you all this dress.

I purchased it for $1 on a color tag sale.

*Scream*

But first ... let me show you the outerwear.

I found this cape/robe coat at Salvation army last Fall. I remember it clearly because I thought it was amazing and wanted to try it on.

Once on Mr. Coco told me it looked like a Wizard cloak *LOL*

Okay so maybe it does look a little wizard-ish but it's still amazing and I had to have it. It looks to be from the 60's and is
Bouclé fabric.

I wanted to take pics outside but we got the biggest dump of snow I have seen since the winter of 2010 and I did NOT want to get this dress wet.

The dress is deadstock still complete with tag.
The Original price for it was $168.00
(That was a big chunk of change back in the day)

Tag on my hip & Jersey scowling at any people that even think of getting close to his Mama! In case you were wondering... I did NOT ask Jersey to sit there.
After his many years with me he knows what a photo shoot is and likes to pose from time to time. *Seriously I am not joking*

The tag is still on the dress because I will probably sell it. It's too pretty to sit around and not be danced in. *Tag says:* (Dance Originals)

I left to stop the self timer on the camera... APPARENTLY Jersey was not done.

*heheheh*

Little Bo Coconut Frock on Friday

"OOooh Hello"

It's Frock on Friday

I found a cute little Hawaiian print type dress this week and that is what I planned to wear. *Stupidly thinking it would fit proper without trying it on*

I cleaned it, ironed it and then went to wear it.. * Ooopsie a little tight.

So I had to quickly choose another I got at the same time.. and this is it.

Now I am not going to say I hate it.. But I am not in love with it either. This is a dress I am going to re-sell. Yes I think its cute.. but it's TOO FLOWEY AND RUFFLY. The easiest way I can explain it... is I felt like *Little Bo Peep*

If only I had a cane and a lamb.

It was a good hopscotch dress. I hadn't hopscotched since school years. And if you wanted to know.. "I still have it!!" *haha*

The shoes were comfy and have a small heel. They didn't do well in playground gravel.

I wore these sweet little earrings which are clip ons. I didn't really feel any pain until I got home and my earlobes hurt. When I took them off I had ouchie indentations.

"Little Bo peep has lost her sheep and doesn't know where to find them..."

P.s. after looking at baby sheep pictures I would actually like some.

The are ADORABLE.

I found these sunnies at Salvation Army I paid 2.00 for them. The frames are in great condition. But the little lady who previously owned them.. must of put them face down alot the lenses are scratched right in the middle. Does anyone know the average cost to get new sun glass lenses put in old frames? Because I really want to wear these next spring and summer.

Last thing (Do you remember Flamingo lady??) Well last week someone posted a ad trying to sell some slide projector trays. I recently picked up a projector so I went to take a look. (It ended up being Flamingo ladies house!!) And I suppose she was wondering why I would be interested in them. And I told her "I LOVE OLD STUFF" And she told me ("She's cleaning out her Mom's basement and having a garage sale this Sat") I hadn't seen any ads until last night. *WOOO* OH MY LUSCIOUS LOBSTERS! That is going to be the first sale I go to. I am quite excited because I bought alot of stuff from her garage sale a few weeks back. I hope her Mom's stuff is just as good.

Happy Weekend Everyone!
